One problem that i found was about using the correct symbols , for ex: about the uav. I could use though if istypeof (#classname) but i haven't for now. I was trying to get this to work , but maybe it needs the module in order to use it? : https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/getGroupIcon https://community.bistudio.com/wiki/Talk:getGroupIcon I haven't test this with the module.

Hello baton ! /* //________________ You can filter the side here ________________ && {((side group _x) == west || (side group _x) == east || (side group _x) == independent || (side group _x) == civilian || (side group _x) == sideUnknown)} // && (side _x == playerSide) // only for the Player side // && (isPlayer _x) // only Players */ In case that you want to get this work for the side of the player , then you should enable the playerside && (side _x == playerSide) // only for the Player side so in case that you are playing as east , you will see only the east side units. If you want to change this only for a certain side , you can use : && ((side group _x) == west) else you can delete or change the lines from the code as : //________________ You can filter the side here ________________ && { (side group _x) == independent || // this means "or" (side group _x) == civilian) } 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks again ! GF, You may want to try the unitIsUAV command. It is more reliable than isTypeOf for UAVs because some of the AR-2 variants are actually defined as helicopters. I'm looking forward to trying this with my group, thanks! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ellman 9 Posted August 5, 2020 Feelsbad for necro but I've downloaded the script and added it to one of my missions. But even if I change the filter for side it still shows all sides on the map, is this overriden by admin perhaps or am I doing something wrong? Edit: GG I just saw the */ comment sign and have now removed it.. And ofc it works now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
